Washington, August 30, 1900.
I receive with great satisfaction your majesty’s message of felicitations upon the opening of the cable completing the chain of closer communication between this country and the German Empire. In this age of progress every tie that brings nations nearer in their commercial relations and friendly interest works their common good and can not fail to strengthen their cordiality and promote their mutual advancement in their paths of peace.
William
McKinley.
